What are your general comments?

The faculty and staff do a great job of easing everyone's anxiety level. Day begins with a talk from financial services, then Dr. Javed comes and gives a introduction. Then the interviews go until lunch. A campus tour after lunch with a student was great and insightful. Then if you had an afternoon interview, you would finish with that and head home. Jill Stevens was there all day and answered everyone's questions honestly. Great help!
